I have inherited a database.....After 3hours of research I am missing
something.... a database opens up with a modified menu.... I cannot see
where the menu has been modified ... it is a global menu and of course there
is no "Tools" menu ... I don't see any macros nor an entry in properites
..... I assume its VB Code but do not seem to recognize that .... what am I
missing?
Thanks for anything

There could be some options set in the Startup section of
your Tools menu. Have you tried holding down the shift
key while opening the database? It's possible that could
bypass the startup options and allow you to see the full
menu.

The Menu/Tool Bar information is displayed by right clicking
on any tool bar and selecting Customize. Once the list of
bars is displayed, you can right click on any item in the
tool bar of interest and select properties to see the
information for any individual item on the bar. One of the
properties is OnAction which will contain the name of a user
defined function if there is any code associated with it.
 
I have tried holding down the shift / open - the menu does
not change - any other ideas???
Thanks
 
I have tried right clicking the menu - nothing happens...I
have tried shift open - I do not see any code on the on
open, on load etc. - still I am not seeing the
anything .... my question would be what vb code deals with
menus or what code will hide or disable the menu editing
Thanks

The code could be in lots of different places. Try opening
any code module and then using Edit - Find with the Search -
Current Database option to look for usage of the CommandBars
object.
